Your Weight Enjoy Your Summer Without Worrying About Your Weightby Lindsey Mazur, RD Around this time every year, we are bombarded with advertisements, television spots and magazine articles about the newest summer diet so we focus on our weight, working out, and attaining the 'ultimate beach bod'.What if we realized that these ads exist to make us unhappy with our bodies, so advertisers can sell us diet products that keep us in a cycle of gaining and losing weight?But what if we were able to feel good about ourselves right now, be comfortable in our own skin, and take care of our bodies without dieting?Here are a few ways we can focus on enjoying our summer without worrying about our weight:1.

The Feast of the Ascension of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ is celebrated each year on the fortieth day after the Great and Holy Feast of Pascha (Easter). Since the date of Pascha changes each year, the date of the Feast of the Ascension also changes. The Feast is always celebrated on a Thursday, however many Parishes move the Feast of the Ascension of the Lord Jesus to their Sunday liturgy to gather more of the community into the celebration.The Feast itself commemorates Christ making His last appearance to his disciples on earth, forty days after His Resurrection from the dead. Jesus appeared before the disciples, and after blessing them and encouragingthem not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Holy Spirit, His body ascended into heaven to His kingly throne at the right Hand of God the Father. With the Feast of the Ascension, Jesus sends his disciples out into the world to proclaim the Good News, and each of us is included in this mission.
